As I begin this report, I’ve just closed a binder, having added in the final card I needed to complete my collection of Arabian Nights. I didn’t think I was to go for it, but I did it. I collected a full set of all 92 cards (including the print variants). It’s been exhausting in some ways, but...

Sorry, I forgot to snap a picture of the full map last night. I reminded myself to do so while on my commute home, and then it just slipped me mind entirely. However, TomB is totally correct here. Good job.

Nope, but he can tell that it would require a magic key or a powerful spell to get through.

Later in 2004, Forbidden Orchard came out. I think this was the first CPA thread about it? Anyway, I'm enjoying all the opportunities I keep finding to plug classic CPA threads when it comes to this topic. I have no idea whether 13NoVa actually took that deck to a Vintage tournament. I do think...

Throg immediately notices that the portcullis is sealed with a powerful magic lock and that there's no way the dwarf is opening that thing. I don't know whether he informs Dorgath of this right away or lets Dorgath puzzle over it for a while...

Added the boots to Ty's inventory.

Within my playgroups in the late 90's and early 00's, Eric had been the main player to use Oath of Druids. Later, another friend of mine built an Oath deck. Chris built an Oath deck that was somewhat different from the tournament builds. He used yet another card from Judgment. The idea of...

While I don't have a copy of Eric's decklist from that tournament, everything I can remember about it matches up pretty well to Zvi Mowshowitz's Turboland deck from 2003. 1 Battlefield Scrounger 3 Time Warp 4 Accumulated Knowledge 1 Capsize 4 Counterspell 2 Gush 2 Intuition 2 Krosan Reclamation...

Carrow looks down the well. His eyes catch water a short distance down the shaft, but nothing else. Dorgath's search of the remains turns up an item he's familiar with... Boots of Battle: Allow for a single kick attack per turn at -1 to hit and +1 Strength. Enchanted to fit the wearer...

I'll talk about Cognivore a bit more. I only ever built two Oath decks myself, and one of those was a Cognivore version. But now I want to talk about my favorite Oath setup of all time. I mentioned it as an aside in a couple of CPA threads, but I never told the full story. This is a good one...

I performed a bit of thread necromancy and posted pictures from my copy of the magazine in that old thread. There are some real gems in there along with some peculiar choices, as CPA members back then were keen to point out. I won't do a deep dive into that list right now, but I will take a look...

-Dorgath's Lifestone of Ashraz restores 1 Wound. -Dorgath's axe restores 1 Wound (20/25). -Tomas casts Glory! -Jekaena casts Finger of Life, but it fizzles. -Jekaena casts Finger of Life, but it fizzles (bad rolls there). -Kelgar blesses Carrow and Throg with Vanquish. -Carrow chops Black Knight...

In the Magic Memories thread that I started for Oath of Druids, I mentioned coming across this old thread and possibly digging up a copy of this magazine and snapping some pictures. Well, I did. Here they are...

I found a thread that may or may not have been the very first thread I found here at the CPA. I say this because I really can't remember the details behind how I first discovered this site, and I think I found my way here a few times in 2003. Eventually, I tried to create an account, but...

I'm glad that I went back and looked at some of these old Oath decks. The Joao Isidro one was especially interesting, but even in general, examining old Extended Oath decks closely has reminded me how much these decks leaned on Gaea's Blessing. I'd kind of mentally filed the Gaea's Blessing...

Ooh, are we saying that some of these cards aren't published by WotC? Which ones? Is it Island? Train would want it to be Island...

I think I pulled a couple of old cards from it, but one of my EDH decks that I still have together is "Epic." I don't get to play it often and I've given some thought to taking it apart and building a new deck with the same commander. Phelddagriff gives opponents hippo tokens, which could help...
